Some of them "need" to be resurrected. There is much that has been written here long ago that is still worth learning ;)
No, they weren't. Coins only become legal tender when they are released by the mint. And these weren't. Now there were other coins from these...
You're correct, Louie XIV. And It was minted at the Paris mint. It is known as the Louis d'or a la tete virile design and it was the first time...
From what I can see none of those are worth much more than $20 or $30.
It might go through 10 or 12 dealers before you ever get to see it Rusty, or just 2 or 3, I just used 6 as an example for illustration purposes....

Well yes, but only to a limited degree, and only in modern times. You see, the original reason for minting coins of a gold alloy (or silver alloy...
For modern issues this is the closest I ever had - [ATTACH] [ATTACH] No, not pure gold, but that's from 7 years in my pocket. Carried with a...
To add to what Matt said Rusty, it also helps if you know coins. What I mean by that is that you should be able to look at the pictures and...
OK, but that policy does not apply to collectible coins.
I agree. But I think it would be a good idea to keep in mind that with special designation coins sometimes that special designation has more...
